How Women are Abused.
. . i 1
The County llecord published at 1
Ikingstree, S. C., has a communication
in its issue for last week showing
how unreasonable men are in
what they expect of women. It is
written from Leo and signed
"Pepper." She says:
"I have seen so much m papers
about the ladies. In nearly every
paper jrou pick up you will find
something "about "woman" and w hat '
is said hardlv ever does them any
credit at all.1'
?? "
*
"The men seem to take a delight
in carping about women. You go
to church and even the preacher
gives them "Hail Columbia" about
cooking on Sunday or even grinding
oaffoe on the Sabbath."
These statements cannot be sueI-*
t
cessfnlly denied for everybody
knows they are true. Columns in
.hp npw?naners are devoted to all
* maimer of fault-finding with the
women. frivolity and extravagance
are fertile subjects and all
the devilment that happens > is
charged to them. An extra price is
paid for sm^rt sayings at the expense
of women and in fact many
men treat women as if they were
enemies of the human race.
"Pepper" is right in what 6he
says about the preachers but her
remarks only apply to preachers who
# cannot preach; such as have answered
when somebody else was
called. To hold their jobs they
hare to vociferate about something
add most of them harangue about
wom$u.
1 "Pepper" speaks of cooking a vegetable
dinner on Saturday and
saving it over for Sunday and thinks
jt would spoil. So do we, and we
also believe it would spoil the temner
of all the men of the household
*
; "Pepper'*-concludes by saying:
"The men do not think anything
of ihaving. themselves or greasing
their buggies on Sunday and I
should like some one to tell us
which is the greater sin, to cook on
8nnday or to grease buggies?"
. We do not blame "Pepper" for
this protest but endorse what she
nvs and think it is time to hold up
s and find. some.other object to complain
about?Abbeville Medium.
Women as Managers.
It is a common opinion that woman
has a limited sphere and that
she must not depart from certain
rhit.rarv hnnndaries marked out bv
men. Enlightened people are wiser
than to believe any such thing. A
woman can do anything in the line
of bnsiness that a man can do and
nature nas not limited her capacities.
Mrs Mary J Webster has beeu elected
president of the Webster Man
ufacturing Company, which manufactures
furniture, located in South
Superior, Wisconsin. The choice is
a wise one, for she knows the business
and there is no reason why a
woman cannot manage a furniture
factory as well as a man.?Abbeville
Medium.
We rise to remark that if a woman
can manage a furniture factory
as well as some women manage some 1
men we know, the enterprise would 1
doubtless pay handsome dividends. 1

the following: A lew days ago Mr
Joyner went riding with Mr Truluck
who drove a horse, which was
lonnerJy owned by Dr Duiianl
and which had the ruputation of
being exceedingly gentle. Dnr
ing the ride the horse took Irighl
Irom some mysterious cause and
ran away. On being asked his
opinion as to the cause of such
extraoidinary proceedings of the
horse, the doctor replied: "It
must have been because thai the
horse is used to hearing only
English spoken behin I him.
